Debian Tutorial – This tutorial will show you how to install LAMP Server on Debian 8.8 Jessie. LAMP stack consist of Linux Operating system. Apache web server, MySQL database server and PHP scripting language. The combination of those provide a reliable web server to host dynamic websites and web applications. Installing LAMP stack on Debian 8 is pretty simple.
Before we started, I assume you have installed Debian server locally or in the cloud. On this tutorial, I installed my Debian server on DigitalOcean.
Steps to install LAMP Server on Debian 8
Step 1. Update Debian
First of all, we need to make sure that our Debian is up to date
apt update && apt upgrade
Step 2. Install Apache
To install Apache web server on Debian 8, use the following command
apt install apache2 apache2-doc
